Reach 100!!!

I weighed today and finally broke 100 lbs loss. I have now officially lost 101 lbs!!! 
I have been eating real good and my family and I have just started walking each night. Imagine this, there are 9 of us, including the little grandson, Jacob and the 3 dogs! LOL  A golden retriever, a bulldog and a mini pincher. We sure look like a motley crew as we are walking down our little country road. hehehe
I know I need to walk because my legs are killing me today. I woke up about 4 times last night with leg cramps. I also haven't had any bananas this week and that is usually the cause of not enough potassium for me. I try to eat one every day or every other day to keep my leg cramps away. I know I could take potassium but, that is one more pill a day and I already take a bottle full so, bananas it is!  Besides now that I've had RNY I can eat them again. Pre-op they use to give me such bad heartburn. Now I can indulge everyday mmmmmmmmmmm.  Take care all and have a good day!

Congrats!!

I love bananas. Granted, I'm still pre-op for the next few days, so that may change.
As I'm doing protein shakes for breakfast and lunch, I have taken to adding bananas to my lunch shake. I have found that it gives me another hour or 2 that I'm not really hungry. And when I do get hungry, I don't feel like pigging out at dinner.

Big congratulations! Breaking over the 100 mark is a great accomplishment.

YEAH JOHNNA!! That's awesome. What a milestone for you. Way to go for getting more active, it's amazing how that exercise hurts isn't it? I worked out with my trainer last evening and my belly, back, and butt are feeling the effects today. As for the bananas, I like them too, but it cracks me up that I can only eat 1/2 of one before I'm full. I usually end up sharing with my kids.

Thanks a lot everyone!!  Yeah, I can eat a whole small banana or 1/2 a large one. Isn't it great Melissa? It's our tool at its finest.
I need to check into that century card thing since I've lost 100 lbs now.

Great Job!! Keep up the good work!

Thanks Pam sweetie, I am so psyched about it and I just went on a walk on my lunch hour with Kim B. from the board here. I met her recently and found out that she works right next to my building. We have been wanting to walk and today we finally went!  Lord, I am out of shape but we walk a good long while and plan to keep it up. I finally feel like its possible to shed these last 58 lbs.
How you doing Pammie? You feeling ok?

WAY TO GO!!! Were you shocked when you started walking that you could walk that far? I know I was! We try to walk a mile every evening.  We are heading out of town in the morning but figure that we can get on all the exercise equipment at the hotel....I am reaching for that 100 mark....but just cleared the 60 lb mark as of today...I lost a half lb in the last two days.  Keep up the great work! Hope to see you at support! It happens to be the day before my birthday!
